Kanuka

Anchored on a sloping site in Point Chevalier, this home explores the intersection of bold form with warmth and liability. The exterior composition plays with texture and contrast - vertical black cladding, warm timber accents and a pale stack-bond brickwork gives the home a distinctive presence while referencing a natural, urban palette. The plan is organised around a central living zone that opens to a sheltered outdoor space and pool. Zones for retreat and gathering are clearly defined, with a focus on orientation, privacy, and flow. he result is a home that feels both sculptural and grounded — contemporary in expression, yet responsive to context and lifestyle.
